I never claimed it was a revelatory observation, but seeing as how you have a Homer Simpson avatar, I think I know where any sort of communications will go.
On the topic of FFXIII, I've heard a lot of things. Bad things, mostly about the game's linearity and lack of variety. If I thought FFX was okay but nothing special and FFXII was sort of bad but with a good battle system, should I check this game out whenever I get a 360 or PS3 again? I like towns but they're not a deal breaker, but if it's nothing but battles for most of the game I'm not sure if I can handle it. I did kind of get annoyed by FFX's whole one road going north deal. I suppose that's a bad sign. There are sidequests though, right?

Just curious but
are all the footage from the trailers in the game? I know that one cutscene at the beginning used to be CGI but it was changed so I'm wondering if there's more like that?

Wait - should I set my TV to 1080P (Samsung 46' hdtv) for the PS3? (Unclick 720p etc)

I've heard people say it doesn't take a performance hit for 1080p so go ahead and do that.DevelopmentArrested said:

Altered from original trailers, i.e. E3 2006, 2007, etc. Lip sync is an alteration from Japanese release, but I think that's about it.

Well I don't know about others, but I have been watching a crapload of FFXIII trailers these past few weeks. :lolhenhowc said:Gotcha. Thanks. You guys got a good memory if you can remember all those details from the old stuff.

I'm wondering this too. I live not even half an hour outside of Toronto and I'm willing to use the TTC and track it down tomorrow. :lolcrimzonflame said:

Dr. Fleas is selling the Xbox version but didnt get any PS3 copies in.
I'll probably follow this thread for the first hand English version impressions since I won't be able to get a copy myself. I haven't been this interested in how a mainline Final Fantasy gets treated by the public in a long while. The mixed scores have made me more interested in the entire thing than anything else since you so rarely see this sort of divisiveness in a high profile franchise's scoring. Most interested in how Sazh turns out.

Is the OST worth buying? Basically, Is it as good as FFX(one of my favorite) or FF7 OST?

I love the soundtrack.. I've spoiled myself silly on it, honestly.Vanille said:
I'd say that the orchestral-techno-vocal thing it does it "radical".. except I always thought that FF would go in that direction eventually anyway. FFX and X-2 hinted at certain electronic elements being meshed with orchestral and new agey music, so ten years down the line I fully expected FF to develop that further. Much praise to Hamauzu for realizing this!

SO4 has it too and that has no real online features outside of stuff like achievements/trophies.
Think it's just a thing that gets put on the boxes even if a game has no online features like multiplayer or DLC and only has the stuff every game has by default, like achievements.

I've get the game pre-ordered, and i'm very back and forth with my excitement. I know in honesty i want to sit down with the game and judge for myself. Every time i see the trailers it gets me going and pumped for some reason. The story, characters, the battle system, something about it seems fantastic. Then i see the reaction's like this and it worries me. Personally, the towns and side quests being removed or dwindled may be good in helping me actually get to the the end as i have problems getting side-tracked by the side quests then getting sick of the game before the actual end of the game and not beating it. So assuming that doesn't bother me, and that XII's battle system i felt with some fine-tuning would be good, do i have much reason for concern, or should my Tuesday night be filled with joy and hope fulfillment?

Get it and you won't be disappointed. Just remember, the game takes a bit to get going, you will play a few hours without some options unlocked. Also, you will switch characters frequently, the game has its reason for doing so, it is to emphasize the struggle each of the characters are going through.
